We Have Entered the "Speculation" Phase of the Market Cycle | Michael Howell

Zero interest rates didn’t exist for 4,000 years of recorded history. Now CrossBorder Capital founder Michael Howell believes we’re about to find out why. Howell developed his framework for tracking global liquidity while working at Salomon Brothers, where he watched capital move across trading desks in real time.

In this interview we cover: How policymakers created the “everything bubble” with zero rates and excess liquidity Why $70 trillion of debt must be refinanced every year What happens as that debt comes due while Fed liquidity slows How to think about asset allocation at different points in the cycle Why China is driving gold prices higher If you want to understand the forces actually moving markets, click play and keep watching.
